Nippon Labs Cat8 Slim Ethernet Cable, Red 26AWG S/FTP, 40Gbps 2000MHz RJ45

Cat8 S/FTP Slim Patch Cable, Red

Red marks the links you do not want touched: uplinks, storage fabric, anything whose loss takes a rack down. In a Cat8 deployment those are usually the highest-value connections in the cabinet, which is exactly why they get their own color.

Cat8 runs at 2GHz and 40Gbps, built for 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T switch-to-server links.
